USA Pan American Bakeware Classics 1 Pound Loaf Baking Pan, Aluminized Steel

These pans are perfect for sourdough loaves. No spray or oil needed. They pop right out without any sticking. I have two and will get more.

These pans were just what I needed. They shipped and arrived quickly. Packaging was good - no dents or scratches. I baked bread in them within a day or two, and the loaves turned out great. It was my first attempt to make bread, and the family gave me great reviews. I recommend hand washing these with your favorite dish soap rather than the dishwasher. The dishwasher detergent is too harsh over a period of time for most nonstick surfaces, and I didn’t want to find out the hard way with these. Besides, it takes no real effort. Nothing stuck, which was the point! I’ve baked several loaves now with the same great results. Like many, I started baking our bread because it was hard to find our regular bread. Going to preservative-free bread is a good idea anyway, so I’m sticking with it. I ordered these because most places are closed, and at the time, Walmart was chock full of people not exercising safety. I mention this because I knew there would be a premium paid for the convenience. Sure enough, one of the pans still had the price tag on it. The retail price was $3.99. ... Again, this was not an issue for me because I went I into this with eyes wide open and understand the basics of economics. A “bargain” doesn’t just refer to the price you paid, but the price under the given circumstances. I mention this just so you can also make an educated decision on whether to purchase or not.

These pans are great for baking bread. However I was looking for a pan that measures 10" x 5" inside dimensions. The stated dimensions are not correct. They are outside measurements which affected the baking. The loaf spread too far over the sides.

Super product. Bakes meatloaf to perfection and in less time. Easy to clean - a real breeze. This is one product that is worth the extra money. Used a very nice ordinary loaf pan from the grocery store and the cleanup wasn't difficult as it was non-stick, but this pan leaves just a trace of food in the corners only. 20 seconds or less cleanup does it just using a soapy cloth. Watch what your recipe says as to cooking time. My nose told me it was cooked before the designated time. This has to be due to the superior thickness of the pan and the aluminiized steel. Nothing else like it available. Try it, you won't be sorry.

I have bought 8 of these bread pans and they are wonderful. I have given them as gifts to experienced and inexperienced bakers and they all like them. Since they have a nonstick coating on them, I have advised and use a nylon scratch pad to clean them. I also use a little shortening on the pan when baking breads (the only thing I have used them for).

Wow! I didn't think I would be impressed by a baking pan but I did. My loaf came out perfect and it nearly slid right out. Super easy clean up, I literally wiped with a napkin and rinsed. The baking was even and the pan felt like good quality, not flimsy.

In all my 60 plus years I have never had a nicer loaf pan. It bakes evenly. It does not harbor batter, grease, or whatever in the corners because there are no corners/folds like some pans fashioned today. Food does not stick to it. It cleans up so easily! I recently ordered a 9 x 11 inch pan that is constructed in the same material and craftmanship this one has (same manufacturer) and love it. Yes, buy it, give it as a gift, use it yourself, because it's better than any baking pan on the market. (I use it for meatloaf and for bread) Kudos to the manufacturer, you got it right.

This is a very very nice loaf pan. I bake all of our bread, about 2-3 times a week. For the first time, I don’t have to grease the pan at all. I brush my bread with egg wash, dripping off the sides just before putting in oven. After baking, I just turn the pan over, the loaf just slide out, with beautifully baked loaf. Only a quick rinse, it looks brand new again. Just love it. Update: The baking pan is still working very well. But I just found another listing on Amazon for the same item but lower price. Very confusing.
